Garcia Resort & Spa

Bar staff, are incredible!!!! Diyar especially!! However this hotel is a good TWO star hotel.. I see the reviews and thought they was Karen's and its what you make it. But its never cleaned. The rooms arent cleaned daily or beds not made. The mould is bad throughout. THERE IS NO ALICART RESTAURANT... food is so bad. Drinks are good but cocktails are nasty. This is NOT a disable friendly hotel. Lifts dont work. Loo dont flush. Staff "cleaners" stole my belongings. And its our honeymoon we've never been ungrateful for anything but this is not a karen post. Believe me the whole place needs fixing up. Its bad. Lovely views. Bar staff all good. Entertainment staff brilliant but this is a big let down. Do not under estimate the reviews. Im happy in a caravan. So this is better but honestly its a two star hotel.

When we first arrived, we did think oh no! Looked a bit tired in places and when we were taken to our room we complained the floor was so loose and broken and a trip hazard They happily showed us another room, which was fine. Large bed, and comfy. Air good and quiet. Food is great, Buffett, lots of choice, lovely salads. Pastry chef deserves a shout out, spoiled for choice. Pools are spotless and plenty of choice, life guard on duty and another on the large slide. The spa is fabulous and amazing value for money, we popped in and met Mehmet, ( he is great) who showed us around the spa and suggested a pre sun and after sun massage, which is to follow. We have had the pre sun so far AMAZING, Turkish steam room, sauna, exfoliating session washing down in loads of bubbles, ( they even washed my hair!)the two ladies were so kind to us, my husband had a bad leg, they were so careful Then we went through for a full body massage, which was great and then taken to a relaxing area, had a foot massage and a facial. We were there nearly three hours. We have our last massage next Tuesday and cannot wait. Make sure you give the spa ago! It cost us £200 for the four massages we will have had, and the hours spent on us makes it seem great value. Overall we have enjoyed the holiday, the staff are 5* and working hard to overcome some of the shortfalls of the building, but you can see they are working on the key areas, spa, restaurant, pool areas etc are great. Good luck to all the hardworking team.

We have just returned from our summer holiday and we have had a fantastic time. So much to do. Excursions are cheap and easy to book through the hotel manager with extra discounts. The hotel itself needs some attention as the exterior and some of the interior is tired and damaged but apart from that the hotel is clean and the staff cannot do enough for you. The food was amazing with a wide variety every day with choices from the restaurant and pool side bar including a night time soup served between 11 and midnight. The pool areas are clean and well maintained. Entertainment was fun with a pool party including foam party for everyone to get involved in. Daily activities for all in the pool including a pool with a slide. The hotel is situated in the hills between Olu Deniz and Hisarönü. Taxis are around £5/6 for either journey with loads of shops and bars. The nightlife in Hisaronu is on another level and the people are very friendly. The cable car trip up the mountain is a must but sunset is busiest and can be a long wait to get down after. Safari jeep trip with water fights is so much fun and can be booked with pick up from the hotel. The spa is my favourite part of the hotel. Well maintained with a wide range of treatments offered including hammam. The therapists are very well trained in offering fantastic massage services. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Air conditioning works extremely well which is needed in August. Bathrooms need some attention due to lack of ventilation Some money needs to be spent on the exterior and some interior areas and the 5 star rating would be justified.

We have just arrived home from a week at this hotel. We are a family of 4, youngest 19, eldest 85. There was something for all of us from the food, drink, entertainment and the pools. We were given fresh towels and water for our room daily. No que for a sunbed , always able to get one for each of us and because my husband (not the 85 year old struggled they made sure he had a chair. Didn’t have to wait long at the bar for a drink. Food was lovely especially the à la carte , pasta was my favourite. The 2 sisters at the entertainment always on hand to get you all involved. I especially loved joining in the Turkish dancing. We also had a Turkish bath and massage, hubby had 2 medical massages, amazing team. General manager is always on hand and very polite and helpful We had a lovely room overlooking the pool , bar and entertainment. Ideal as we could also watch it from our balcony. We would definitely be back. There are a few ageing parts of the hotel but this did not infringe on our experience at the hotel. Lovely location and peaceful

We have just returned from the most incredible holiday, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, every member of staff made us feel so welcome and looked after us with genuine kindness. It is without a doubt one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. A huge thank you to the manager, Ibrahim, who went above and beyond throughout our stay. He was always approachable, professional, and genuinely cared about making sure every guest had the best possible experience. His exceptional hospitality did not go unnoticed. We also want to give a special shout-out to Doğa, Bulut and Diyar from the entertainment team. They brought so much energy, fun, and laughter every single day. They made everyone feel included and created such a fantastic atmosphere, making our holiday even more memorable. Thank you to every single member of staff for your hard work, kindness, and outstanding service. It’s clear that everyone takes great pride in making guests feel at home, and it truly shows. We are leaving with so many wonderful memories and will definitely be returning. We can’t recommend this hotel highly enough!
